RentalMan XI

Wynne Systems recently unveiled RentalMan version XI, the latest release of its IBM i-based suite of ERP software for companies in the equipment rental industry. First released in 1993, RentalMan is a premiere suite of i-based accounting software for companies in the equipment rental and sales business. The suite comes fully integrated with rental, sales, analysis, AR/AP, general ledger, purchasing, and equipment maintenance components, and is used by companies such as United Rentals, RSC, Hertz Equipment Rentals, and Sunbelt Rentals. The new version has been bolstered to support European accounting practices, which should help the company expand its reach overseas. Version XI also includes support for temporary rental suspension, support for tiered daily rental rates, and enhanced rate override controls for negotiated rates, which should allow RentalMan customers to be more flexible in their business practices. The new release also gains new features in the customer payment screens; enhancements to the order-to-requisition-to-purchasing workflows; better multi-language capabilities; and enhanced banking and money management functionality.
